Tomorrow perhaps I'll update the krb5 port to 1.1 and remove this port. I want to have a day to catch snafus. BTW, the krb5 port has a krb5_1_0_6 tag if, after it is upgraded, folks need to grab the old version for some reason. Here's what is new in Kerberos V 1.1 Release (verbatim from the annuncement). Please especially note ``LAST MINUTE NOTICES''.
